Exploiting AT2R to Improve CD117 Stem Cell Function In Vitro and In Vivo - Perspectives for Cardiac Stem Cell Therapy

Background/Aims: CD117+ stem cell (SC) based therapy is considered an alternative therapeutic option for terminal heart disease. However, controversies exist on the effects of CD117+ SC implantation. In particular, the link between CD117+ SC function and angiotensin-II-type-2 receptor (AT2R) after M...
